Price: $1,090 per participant

IMPORTANT:
Our workshops are regularly scheduled events held in large cities around the U.S., as well as on-site workshops upon request. Electrical & Plumbing On-Site Workshops start at $15,150.00 and allow up to 15 participants (additional participants for additional fee).
Workshop Description
Finally, a practical training service that gives you "hands-on" practice while you learn trade skills.
We recently redesigned and substantially improved our training mock-ups to give workshop participants a more realistic training experience. Many students are commenting about how easy it is to learn and work on these newer life-size mock-ups. This redesigned mock-up also allows the instructor to present much more realistic scenarios, very similar to what participants will encounter in the field.
The “hands-on” approach to teaching these workshops has proven time and again to be the ideal learning environment for not only Beginners, but for those who want to update and refresh their knowledge in Electrical & Plumbing Maintenance.
Under the supervision of our skilled and experienced workshop leader, participants will learn firsthand, in a non-threatening and fun way, how to handle the most common types of electrical and plumbing maintenance problems that are encountered in Facility Maintenance. They will gain a higher level of understanding and maintenance regarding the electrical and plumbing aspects at their facility.
Each participant will use a detailed workbook throughout the training that explains how to perform the maintenance and repair work included in the workshop. These will be theirs to keep and use as reference on the job at their facilities. TSA certificates will be presented to everyone who attends.
Due to the personalized and hands-on nature of this workshop we must limit attendance to 32 attendees, so please pre-register early to ensure your spot at this popular training session.
